Jakob MiskellI wanted to go after the Leo Triplet again after seeing how great the Newtonian did on M106 and the Triplet last time, but I last captured the Triplet before the scope was flocked so it has a faint donut around the galaxies. I figured I wouldn't risk stacking the new data with the old in case the donut would appear in the stack, so I started over on it. I got 5.43 hours of data on it which is almost an hour more than what I got last time. The two are pretty similar to each other, but it's nice to get rid of that donut.<br>
